I dont know who makes the military versions. Xybernaut has contracts with Navistar, Boeing, NASA, & maybe the Dept of Homeland Security at the moment as well as others |

Doesn't our military have an upgraded version of that computer that the combat troops use? I think they do, but it may be a little bit bulkier. |

The ultimate gadget would be a microchip u could paste somewhere on your skin or perhaps subcutaneously if that doesnt creep u out. A tiny chip that would combine cell phone, PC, interent access, e-mail. Imagine thinking of printing something & your printer kicks out a sheet, wanting to remember something u see & being able to capture what u see directly to the chip & posting it immediately on the net. Now thats what I want  |

I just bought 1000 shares @ $2.00 so we'll see what happens. Maybe Bertone, Cerruti, or Tommy Hilfiger could do a nice job redesigning & marketing it |

Great idea. They are right down the street from me and from people I talk to the software is pretty good. I agree it needs to look better. Sure I would wear it. Supposedly working on a curved LCD display that wuld allow the screen to be displayed on a even smaller device that looks like regular glasses/shades and all the other stuff could be carried, like in a backpack,. Interesting stuff. |

check out http://www.xybernaut.com They have a device called a Poma which is a wearable PC so u can check out FC.com while u r at the track or Concours Now if u could get real time photos that would b great. I think XYBR should hire a big name designer to make it better looking & put their name on it. Pininfarina could do a great job on this baby with Windows 98 & some tiny solar panels to kkep the batteries charged. How about some Ferrari collectors like Ralph Lauren. |
